District heat & steam distribution 5% loss
0.0095kgCO2e/kWh
Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of district heat & steam distribution 5% loss. Transmission and distribution (T&D) factors should be used to report the Scope 3 emissions associated with grid losses (the energy loss that occurs in getting the electricity from the power plant to the organisations that purchase it).
